This article is about the Flash cartoon. For the character of the same name, see Homestar Runner (Character).

Homestar Runner is an American flash-animated comedy web series created by Mike and Matt Chapman, also known as The Brothers Chaps. It uses a blend of surreal humour, self-parody, and references to popular culture, in particular video games, classic television, and popular music.
While the site originally centered on the title character, Homestar Runner, the Strong Bad Email cartoon skits quickly became the site's most popular and prominent feature, with Strong Bad becoming a breakout character. Since 2000, the site has grown to encompass a variety of cartoons and web games featuring Homestar, Strong Bad, and numerous other characters.
At the peak of its popularity, the site was one of the most-visited sites with collections of Flash cartoons on the web, spreading via word of mouth. The site sustains itself through merchandise sales and has never featured advertisements. The Brothers Chaps have turned down offers to make a television series.After a four-year hiatus beginning in 2010, Homestar Runner returned with a new Holiday Toon on April 1, 2014, for April Fools' Day. Afterwards, co-creator Matt Chapman announced plans to give the site semi-regular updates starting in fall 2014, due to the positive reception given to the April Fools' Day cartoon. Since global support for Flash ended on December 31st, 2020, homestarrunner.com has maintained a fully functional Flash website through the emulator, Ruffle. More cartoons have since been released on the website on an occasional basis, usually to celebrate holidays.

    dot and dab and bath position question.

    just want some opinions folks:smilewinkgrin:, so you go and look at a job, bath is in position against wall but still can be moved if needed. Walls are all over place and need to be dot and dabbed with 12.5mm plasterboard. How far off wall (existing) would you ask plumber to pull bath forward?
